Who knew I'd actually start to care, ready to go all in now.
"Madge, I'll spare you the pretty words and high-minded talk. It was onfor not keeping a closer eye on Nelly,
and | own up to that."
"As forand Dailey, we're inseparable at this point. No need to waste your breath trying to convince me
otherwise. As for the future, who knows? Tomorrow or stwist of fate might cfirst, but I'm living in the
now."
"| can't really help Dailey with his business, but | won't be a thorn in his side either, not like Nelly was, pushing
him to the point of annoyance and putting him in a tough spot."
Christine paused there.
When she spoke again, her voice was dead serious.
"Madge, if the day comes when someone's pointing a gun at my head, trying to force Dailey to do something,
rest assured, | won't make it hard for him."

"That's all I've got to say on the matter."
"My head's killing me. You can see yourself out."
Madge looked at Christine for a long half minute before standing up to leave.
She didn't believe in love strong enough to die for.
In her book, relationships were all about mutual benefit. That's what made them solid.
"Grandma."
As Madge opened the door to the hospital room, there stood Dailey, unsurprised.
If such trivial schemes could fool him, how could he ever shoulder the entire Clarkson legacy?
"Heard everything?"
Dailey closed the door behind him, supporting his grandmother as they walked towards his grandfather's room,
nodding. "You should stop making grandpa cto the hospital in this freezing weather. If he really gets sick,
you'll be the one crying."
Madge seldom cried. After all,
growing up in a strict household and
battling it out in the business world,
where seeing bloodshed was common, crying was a waste of tbetter spent solving problems.
"Dai, what makes you like her so much?"
Dailey couldn't quite put it into words. There was no reason, really. He just liked her, and that was that.
"Grandma, Tunderstand your
concerns. I'm not shirking the responsibilities of the Clarkson name. I'll bear them well. Even
without a powerful wife by my side, | can walk my path steadily.
"I've made up my mind about her. If you're going to force us apart, then don't blme if | seriously consider
leaving the Clarkson nbehind." Madge slapped him on the back in frustration.
She was really angry but felt powerless.

She never imagined that Dailey, always so aloof and cold, could love someone to this extent-enough to forsake
his family and the weight of the Clarkson legacy.
If only policy had allowed, she would've had more children.
Jayne could've had another child, but Dailey's birth had taken a toll on her.
Their marriage was a union of interests; divorce was out of the question. Normand's status didn't allow for
illegitimate children.
All their hopes were pinned on Dailey, their only child, and this was the outcome.
It was enough to drive her to rage.
"Don't be angry."
Hearing his grandmother's breathing grow heavy, Dailey knew she was furious. He tried to soothe her, but she
brushed his hand away. "You're trying to killwith this stress." Dailey: "I couldn't possibly."
"Dailey!"
Madge used his full name, "You have
no chance of cutting ties with the Clarkson family. If you insist on opposing us, then, in the end, the only one who
will pay the price is Christine."
